DIMENSIONS OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE ETHICS FROM AN INTERNATIONAL AND EU PERSPECTIVE

Abstract

Today, we live in a time when humanity is marked by an extremely complex political and economic context, by chaos, crises, but also by a fulminant development of science and, above all, of artificial intelligence (AI). In the period of the "fourth industrial revolution" (or "(r)evolution AI"), we must be aware that, in addition to the multitude of advantages it brings to humanity, it also generates multiple ethical problems, given the lack of a clear legal framework at Union and international level. In the face of these challenges, fortunately, the reactions did not take long to appear at the international level, at the European level and of the EU institutions. This study proposes a brief reflection on the issue of ethical principles that have been taking shape in recent years at the European and international level in the field of AI, based on the fundamental idea of promoting a human-centered AI that serves the common good, that respects fundamental rights and general ethical values.
